No....!@#$ Easter. I refuse to celebrate till somebody explains why this holiday is celebrated with eggs and rabbits, as I see no correlation with Jesus.

There's nothing to explain, it really is just a pagan holiday at this point.

That episode was hilarious.

Actually after doing a little bit of research I found what Easter has to do with eggs. Though I haven't found anything about rabbits...they still seem to be random as shit to the holiday. But this is the link I found: http://www.theholidayspot.com/easter/history/icons/easter_egg.htm

It explains the egg bit, rather interesting.

I already knew about why the eggs were a part of it.
But still, it's the same as Christmas, it's just a pagan holiday that I don't support.
As far as I'm concerned, every day should be Christmas, and every day should be Easter, it's lazy to limit it to one day a year.

And I suppose you refuse to accept Christmas presents too.

There's nothing wrong with Christmas, but it's just not right to support the overall concept of being charitable annually rather than constantly. Which is basically exactly what that holiday has become.

Lol, grow up Faggle, it's celebrated with eggs and rabbits to provide fun and a bond between a family, exactly what Jesus Christ would have wanted. It's the day Jesus ressurected, we are celebrating that, by giving Jesus what he wants, Peace and love through families. (Am I right?)...Asking why Easter is celebrated with eggs and rabbits is basically like asking why birthdays are celebrated with balloons and cake...So stop being an iconoclast and next year enjoy easter with your family...Happy late Easter >_<

True, but isn't it better to do this at least the one day? If it weren't for the holidays people would probably just forget about it all together.
